Description
Our Yori mug is a roomy stoneware mug with a cream body and a vivid reactive glaze that pools around the rim and runs down the sides in long, uneven drips. A fine crackle shows through the glaze, and the body has a gently irregular outline that sits comfortably in the hand. It stands 11cm tall and 8cm across and holds 450ml, which makes it a large mug: room for a long cup of tea, a big milky coffee or a hot chocolate with space left at the top. At 0.45KG it has a reassuring weight.
This is a mug for the first cup of the day and the slow one in the afternoon, the kind that quietly becomes someone's favourite. The open loop handle takes a few fingers, and the generous capacity suits anyone who would rather skip the trip back to the kettle. Stoneware holds heat well, which suits a drink taken slowly over a book or a morning's work. It makes a thoughtful gift for a tea drinker or a coffee lover, and it looks at home on a breakfast table, a desk or a bedside tray.
The mug is 100% stoneware with a vivid reactive glaze. A reactive glaze changes as it fires, so the drips fall differently on every piece and no two mugs come out quite alike; expect yours to have its own pattern. It is approved for food and drink, and it can go in the dishwasher with the rest of the dishes. It is not for the microwave or the oven, so warm milk in a pan before pouring. To style it, line it up with other ceramics on an open shelf, or hang it from a hook beneath a kitchen cabinet where the glaze can catch the light.
